Very cool.

And a great way to get to play with dragons.

[KnuckleHead]

Very nice! I actually wanted to use a dragon my last game, but didn't find an egg until the very end.

[Ardbug]

Yeah same here, by the time I get the egg I cant afford to have my herder babysit it in its cradle, very nice :)

[CustodianV131]

Nice idea!

Won't play it just yet since I've to many official classes to try yet, but might very well try this in the future. Really like the theme and realization of the character!

So far my eggs only showed up really late in the game. It might well be overpowered getting a dragon that early, but hey it will be fun to play!

Wonder or the content update will also add new classes.

I got 6 in my last game. I was piling them in the corner because I didn't know what to do with them all.

[Zess]

Hey! I've been looking to try out the dragons, but I can't find any dragon eggs, nor does the link posted in the original post work. Can someone re-upload it or something?

[Kuplo]

I get the following when clicking the link to download the mod:
The requested URL /hinterland/GurusDMod10.zip was not found on this server.

[Bigheadmikelove]

Can I mod it through steam?

[MrCuddlyTiger]

My question is how did you add another class when all of the scripts to do so are compiled and not able to be opened unless you decompile them.. which isn't really an easy thing to do with DSO files? Not to mention decompiling the scripts, I assume, would be against the eula for the game.

[Zess]

Uhh. Can someone please re-upload this? I want to see how he managed to add another class, aswell as use the one he made.

[guru]

Zess I'll put it back up tonight. I did some updating since there was 4 patches since I modded this , everytime they add a class/race it breaks this mod. Anyway you can always just edit your save game file to add anything in the game to your character.

If your interested Ill make a how-to tonight as well.

I have completed a few other mods, more inventoryspace(27 instead of 18) and crafters and priests that summon magical items (same as ogre, troll and dragon magical items.)

update to the Dragonmaster should be up within a few hours at same link.

[guru]

A new version has been uploaded for those wanting to try out this class/race. Even if you dont need the new class, the new images for DragonMaster class are kinda cool. Happy Hintering!

[Mierk]

Hi guru, thanks for the great work.

I am very interested in learning how you did this. I would welcome anything you're willing to share.

Thanks!

[Bloodly]

This seems darn interesting. Unfortunately, the link is dead, and it's been some time. I wonder whether it's still even possible to use this?

[arafelis]

I'd be interested in the how-to as well.

[Lord Blade]

I'd love this mod. And learning how to create my own classes.

[mgrateful]

Could anyone post this mod for download again? The link is broken perhaps one of yas that have grabbed it from their previously would hook us up?

[gaia24]

i would love to try this out but the link don't work and yes i did read the post hoping you can either tell me how to add item's and gold plus after looking at this i would love to try it

[Amun Nefer]

oooh, I didn't know about this mod. I wonder if it would work with Orc Lords, if my Orc Lords would work with me, haha. :rolleyes:

[uly]

Wow, it looks like a genuine mod, rather than just a hack or graphics pack. I wonder how he manged to make it. Would love to try it out!

[sheik]

Guru states that every time a patch is released it breaks his mod (the binary file size changes, so the game fails its checksums). I'm guessing he's stopped playing the game and doesn't want to keep maintaining his mods :(.

He's posted more information about modding in this thread: http://www.tiltedmill.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19325

His other mod, the temple of evil item mod, seems straight forward enough; just editing the XML's. But as far as I can tell adding a new class requires editing the compiled .cs.dso files, which aren't human readable. The question is: how?

[sheik]

He seems active at http://www.gametoast.com/ so maybe send a polite request there for him to look at this thread?
